SPEEDO USA’s New TriClops Pack Wins Red Dot Award 2014

SPEEDO USA, a division of PVH Corp. (NYSE:PVH), announced today that the
TriClops, the brand’s cutting-edge new pack designed specifically for triathlon, has been selected as a winner in the prestigious
Red Dot Award: Product Design 2014 competition.

Built with innovative features to manage all the tools a triathlete needs to perform and to keep gear for the swim, the bike and the run easily and efficiently accessible, the
TriClops impressed the 40-member expert panel for the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2014 with its high design quality and “optimal organization of gear paired with high comfort and practical detail.”

Red Dot’s internationally recognized Product Design competition began in 1954 and has grown to become one of the world’s largest and most distinguished competitions honoring excellence and innovation in product design. Experts on this year’s Red Dot jury discussed and evaluated a record 4,815 entries from 53 countries. Only designs that won over the jury with quality and innovative strength – including the
TriClops – were awarded the coveted Red Dot quality seal.

The
TriClops and its fellow award winners will be on display in the Red Dot Design Museum in Essen Germany, in a bound exhibition catalog, and in their online multi-media exhibition; the awards will formally be presented at a gala event in Essen, Germany, on July 7, 2014.

“We are honored that the
TriClops and SPEEDO USA have been recognized with the Red Dot award for our innovation and excellence in functional industrial design,” said
Barry McGeough, SPEEDO USA’s Vice President of Hardgoods. “Throughout its 85 year history, the
Speedo brand has been known for innovation in swimming and aquatic sports gear and we designed the
Triclops with the features and high-performance technology that every triathlete needs – and that is expected from
Speedo.”

Made with durable Nylon 100D Cordura Ripstop and YKK® zippers, the
TriClops is lightweight, strong and durable, and equipped with:

SPEEDO USA’s unique three headed zip system, which allows the pack to be opened into an organized relay station without the need to remove the helmet

Internal organization with dedicated pockets for running and cycling footwear

Soft hip belts made to conform to the wearer for an individual fit to keep pack in place

Ergonomic 3D molded shoulder straps and Turbo Vent system, allowing for maximum air flow and back support, providing comfort and breathability between the bag and the athlete

“Being awarded the renowned Red Dot seal for the
TriClops is a testament to the
Speedo brand’s history of innovation,” added McGeough, “and furthers our commitment to bring the brand’s authentic, 85-year performance heritage and aquatics know-how to the Packs category.”

The
Triclops is one of 13 new packs being introduced by SPEEDO USA in 2014. Every highly-durable style in the new collection is built with an athlete’s needs in mind, featuring electronics and media organization, cutting-edge materials, high quality buckles and trims, and – being
Speedo – aquatic features useful for any activity. For more on the
